Councillor John Holtby, deputy leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council, said: “We are urging households who do not pay by direct debit to set one up today, this is the simplest and easiest way to allow the council to pay your £150 council tax energy rebate. To set up a direct debit online you will need your council tax account number.
“If you do not have this to hand you will receive your new 2022/23 bill shortly which contains this information. Set up your direct debit at www.eastriding.gov.uk/ctdd.
“If you do not set up a direct debit, the council will contact you in April requesting that you complete an application form.”
